ST control boxes

Attempt PC files copy: Every time OL Monitor starts, it checks to ensure the Precompiled files are present and the right version in the StOffice folder. If they are not, OlMonitor will attempt to copy them into the folder. This can be a problem because Windows 7 does not like it when a program decides to poke around another program's folder and then have the audacity to put files in there. So it may block both the attempt to check the files and the attempt to copy the files. So this option is present to prevent OL Monitor from trying.

Logfiles path

This is where the Smarterm script/macro places the captured logfiles containing current test info.

In most cases this will be the Smarterm Sessions directory.

OL Monitor makes an attempt to get Smarterm to use the "Public\Documents\OlMonitor" folder captured logs. However depending on what version and how you have Smarterm installed it may not allow that change.

So the folder location may vary depending on what version of Smarterm is installed and what options were used. OlMonitor automatically searches multiple locations to find the logfiles but occasionally fails to locate the right folder.

Operating System

This is more for your information. Ol Monitor detects the operating system it is on and changes it's behaviour accordingly.

Ol Monitor v1.77 and above is designed to work with Windows 7 NOT using compatibility mode. However if compatibility mode has been engaged, it is impossible for OL Monitor to correctly determine the actual operating system, and may start trying to do things, use folders, that are disallowed in Windows 7. So if for some reason you decide to engage compatibility mode on Windows 7, you may also want to let Ol Monitor know about it to avoid potential problems.

Security

Encrypt PID/processlog: OL Monitor will encrypt both the captured test logs as well as the debug/error OlProcesslog file used for troubleshooting.

No PID in processlog: During troubleshooting, we may need to look at the OlProcesslog file which can contain PID. Enabling this option will prevent any PID from being put into OlProcesslog. Whenever you save this option the current OlProcessLog will be deleted since it might contain previous PID.

Private patient name: This will remove the patient last name and replace with just the first letter of the last name. I.E. "SMITH, JAMES" would display instead as: "S, JAMES"
